Murder in the Night

Offset Printing Co. launched Murder in the Night as a single 1944 comic, a shadowy, single-issue crime anthology that stands as a stark artifact of its era. While its run was brief, the title is notable for representing the kind of pulpy, noir-infused standalone comics that filled newsstands during the Golden Age. Its legacy is that of a forgotten curio, a snapshot of the genre's raw, pre-Code sensibilities.
